Given the nature of message boards like SI, it's rare we get to meet one another in the flesh. I had the good fortune of being able to entertain Misha in my house when he came to town for one of his theater photoshoots. He was so animated. So full of life. A real joy to be around. He was so passionate about his craft, about the theater, even about the companies in which he invested that brought him to SI. In fact, he was such a fervent contributor to SI that he founded the board The History of Silicon Investor.

Misha was enamored with the famous Czech novel The Good Soldier Švejk "an unfinished satirical dark comedy novel by Czech writer Jaroslav Hašek, published in 1921–1923, about a good-humored, simple-minded middle-aged man who is enthusiastic to serve Austria-Hungary in World War I... Hašek originally intended Švejk to cover a total of six volumes, but had completed only three (and started on the fourth) upon his death from heart failure on January 3, 1923." I feel like Misha had an inkling he too might not calendar-wise last for six volumes, which would explain why he crammed all six volumes worth of living in the time he had here on earth.
